I recently bought a collection of cameras and equipment (which I didn't really need but the widow of the photographer was going to throw them in the bin). Amongst the equipment was an Exakta RTL 1000 with a Meyer-Optik Gorlitz Lydith lens. I tried it out this afternoon.
Nice photograph, Tony. I like the tones and 3D quality. I'd heard that the Lydith was an interesting lens, and now I see why. I'm interested to note that you developed your Fomapan 400 in HC110 -- I've never liked much of anything I've developed with HC110, but your photo suggests I just need to try it with different films!

Hi Trask, thanks. Truth be told it was all I had in the cupboard. Haven't done much analogue for a couple of years now so it was an old bottle as well. Time was 7 minutes but could have done with a bit longer I reckon.
